Too Similar to be the Same


Interests and thoughts overlap and are things that we share,
Civil Partnership or Marriage - we don't really care.
Love of Timbo ironically borders on fundamental worship,
We each believe the Catholic Church is a twisted dictatorship.
Shane is a main focus, practically every single day,
We can talk for hours about anything, even slightly gay.

And even though we share these common things and others,
There are things that are different, one being our Mothers.
The differences between the two are obvious and clear,
They have their way of dealing with their daughter being queer.
When it comes to my view of you, we always disagree,
And the same thing happens any time you try to flatter me.

You tell me that I’m funny, but I think I’m a tit,
I say you are gorgeous – you think I’m talking shit.
You say that I am kind, but I think I am vile,
I say you are clever, and (in disbelief) you smile.

Although, 98% is a lot of things to share,
There is a point to all of this which is true and fair.
The conflicts we have really are a shame,
But the fact is we’re just too similar to be the same.
